Citizen Khan - the comedy creation of Birmingham's Adil Ray - has joined the chorus of condemnation for the city's latest batch of crazy parking.

The star reacted on Twitter after police tweeted pictures of officers' latest crackdown in the inner-city.

The owner of this emerald green Ford Fiesta Zetec was so pressed for a parking space, they plonked it right across a traffic island in Sparkhill.

And it seems the driver of this Volkswagen Golf could not make up their mind so they left it half in the road and half on the pavement, completely blocking the pedestrian access.

And this business driver left his vehicle dangerously on a junction.

All three were pictured in the Springfield ward and were part of 28 issued by Springfield Police last week.

Adil - whose comedy creation Citizen Khan blocks the pavement with his yellow Mercedes - remarked on Twitter: ‘Where do they get these silly ideas from?’

On Tuesday, officers from the Road Harm Reduction Team teamed up with Moseley and Kings Heath where they issued 13 tickets within an hour.

Some of the trouble hotspots targeted included Moseley Village and Kings Heath High Street.

This Ford Fiesta was slapped with a ticket for parking nose first into a garden wall.

A driver of a van was also ticketed for blocking the pavement in the centre of Moseley Village and a Toyota is facing a fine for parking on double yellow lines off Alcester Road, just outside the shops in central Moseley.

The same day, cops snared 30 motorists within 90 minutes for exceeding the 20mph speed limit on Russell Road and Billesley Lane.

One included a motorcyclist who was clocked travelling at 49mph and claimed their speedometer was broken.

PC Mark Hodson said: “Most of the issues with parking aren’t residents but people using the shops. We had delivery drivers, taxi drivers parked on the apex of a junction.

“We prosecuted 30 for excess speed including a motorcyclist whose speedometer did not work, he did not know how fast he was going.”

Moseley and Kings Heath Police tweeted: “13 drivers across the ward reported for offences including obstruction, leaving a vehicle in a dangerous position and parking on zig zags.”
